James Franco Comments on Soap Actors in Lapham's Quarterly



James Franco says some  really interesting, respectful things about soap actors and their constraints as actors given the time frame that daytime shoots.

This isn’t to say that soap opera performers are worse than film actors, or that their performances are inferior. The soap opera performance should always be perceived in context: it involves actors working in a tradition that soap audiences have come to expect and love. Soap actors are delivering exactly what they are supposed to—they are in tune with their audience and they are not attempting to transcend it.

The full article about acting is on Lapham's Quarterly where Franco appears as guest blogger. You all know my wub-hate relationship with Mr. F... on the one hand I'm thrilled GH is getting the press it is and on the other, interrupting everything for "stunts with movie stars" can really piss me off. Soaps aren't start-stop...they flow (something Guza needs to go back to school for).  But hey, I am super excited for the MOCA location shoot (with 200 GH fan extras there--that's a PLUS) and seeing where they go with all this. You know I want to own a Franco original someday when he goes through his "Lobster" phase!

Sorry there was no Sunday Surgery. I spent the day with hubs and Dad--in my parents pool, floating around in bliss. Cyberspace seemed far away. Thank you for writing about the trouble with comments. There are about 4 of you that can't seem to  post--and I'm looking into the Windows aspect of it to see if that's a problem. I'm sorry and it sucks!!
See you at 3pm!!

    I required some information and was searching on Bing for it. I visited each of the top 5 pages that came up but didn’t get any relevant result... I then luckily found your diamond message board in the dirt and thought to check it out. This is what I wanted!

    Cheers people at wubtub.blogspot.com and keep this fantastic effort up.

    Thanks for sharing the link, but unfortunately it seems to be offline... Does anybody have a mirror or another source? Please reply to my post if you do!

    I would appreciate if a staff member here at wubtub.blogspot.com could post it.

    Thanks,
    William

    Have you considered the fact that this might work another way? I am wondering if anyone else has come across something
    exactly the same in the past? Let me know your thoughts...

    NOW YOU CAN PERFORM LIKE A YOUNG LIONONCE AGAIN!

    It’s true: we’re all getting older. And while some say age is all in the mind, it does sometimes show

    in the body — when you can’t seem to perform the same in the bedroom as you used to. Now there’s

    Excel, an all-natural solution to your woes between the sheets.

    We’ve carefully blended a proven mix of herbs that will take years off your age, letting you perform

    in bed like the young lion you once were. You’ll feel like you’re back in your 20s — or even younger —

    after taking Excel for just a few short weeks. And renewed sexual prowess won’t be your only benefit:

    you’ll also feel less anxious, more relaxed, and healthier overall, thanks to the bonus properties of

    our 100% pesticide-free herbal ingredients. Some of our ingredients, long used as aphrodisiacs around

    the world, even intensify the pleasure you feel at your partner’s touch. Imagine all of these benefits

    — with no side effects to speak of!

    PRILIGY(DAPOXETINE) has been found to be safe and effective for the treatment of premature

    ejaculation, according to two major clinical trials. Dapoxetine is a short-acting

    selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI).
